Mythic Dungeon Gear and Ranks
Every piece of Mythic Dungeon Gear will have a rank/tier based on its Item Level.
Mythic Dungeon Gear starts at Rank 1 (Item Level 376) and can be upgraded to Rank 13 (Item Level 415) in Dragonflight Dragonflight Mythic+ Season 1.
You will also find ranks on Great Vault loot. For example, if you receive a piece of gear from the weekly chest with Item Level 392, it will be Rank 6 out of 13.
Find out more about the weekly chest in our dedicated guide!
Valor Upgrade Tiers and Requirements in Dragonflight
